Issues with packages lacking fully compiled dependencies.

Hi all,

After the last update on my 16-current box, I encountered an issue with 
Xfce4. I use Xorg + Xfce4 as my desktop environment, and I installed 
both using the following command:

pkg install -y -g "xorg*" -g "xfce4*"

However, my desktop did not work correctly because the xfce4-desktop 
package was not installed. Thinking about this, I believe the pkg 
command should have a warning message to inform users when mandatory 
packages are missing or were not compiled in the repository.
